Don't Let April Showers Rain on Your Parade!

By: Taylor Kling

The first thought that comes to mind when I wake up and it’s raining outside is, “I want to stay in bed all day wearing sweatpants and a sweatshirt.” Many women do not recognize the different fashion trends or selections that we can utilize on a rainy day, but I’m going to attempt to inspire you and your wardrobe for those wet, cold and drizzly days.

Clothing is a major aspect of our everyday lives; whether it’s an outfit for going to class, dressing up for a formal presentation, or going to work. Some obvious but great accessories that accent an outfit on a rainy day would be an umbrella, rain boots, and a trench coat. Rain boots have become a trendy accessory. You can buy rain boots in a variety of colors and designs to match certain outfits. If you are trying to have a more sophisticated older look, solid colors on rain boots would be a better choice. However, if you have a presen-tation to give at work, rain boots might not be the best idea.

People might make fun of you, but pack a pair of flats in your purse to wear around the office.
